On the up side the tank does not weight 550lbs, after seeing the tank and measuring the glass thickness the tank weight estiment is 475 - 485 lbs.

I'm good for Fridays after 5pm. Sat/Sunday anytime so long as I get 24 hours notice and a free tank ride.

I would have to say that I am leaning more toward Saturday around noon. Would rather move the tank out in the daylight.

Hey all, so I have to plan this tank move on Saturday the 5th around noon. I hope to be bringing down 1 maybe 2 of my boys and Brett, Kien & Josh have so generosly said that they will lend a hand. I would like to have a couple more fellows to help out though just to make it a little easier for all. I really don't want anyone to get hurt, I know what it is like to have a damaged back so I don't want it to happen to anyone else.

I have a plan of attack that would make lifting the tank to a bare minimum, just long enough to get it up off the stand and out the window. I do not want us to have to lift the whole tank at once at any point.

The tank is located just off Southland Drive , west side of MacLoad Tr.

If you are able to lead a helping hand shoot me a PM, I will send you the address by Friday.

And if we get enough fellows Kien can get his free tank ride

Thanks to all in advance, I really do appreciate every thing.

Noon still works for me. I have a dinner date that night so It can't be later in the evening for me.
